    "content": "\nHi Tony, Roger and Bob!\n\nThe \"winning\" unit is an Am-Com ClearSpeech Base Unit.  It goes inline \nbetween the audio output of the rig and the external speaker.  This was \nbased on the reviews on eHam.net ( http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/1041 \n) as well as Jeff's asking price.\n\nNo settings, just an on/bypass type toggle switch.\n\nNot being familiar with other DSP units, besides my old Radio Shack DSP 40\nhttp://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/4630 , I was pleasantly surprised by \nthe amount of white noise reduction and astonished by the amount of steady \ntone elimination that the ClearSpeech unit offers!\n\nThe DSP 40 can handle the steady tone elimination somewhat, but the white\nnoise reduction was very poor.\n\nThe ClearSpeech Base unit was tested last night on 6m with a semi-local \nham (same grid square but about 30 miles away), K3JRD.  The noise floor \nwas around S7-S8 and Jim's signal was a S9+, but there was still a lot of \nwhite noise in the audio.\n\nI'm actually ahead of myself here... I wanted to test the DSP unit without \nbeing \"at the radio\", so I fired up my 6m rig and tuned to 50.125 USB. \nWith the DSP off, I had the usual loud white noise.  With the DSP on, the \nwhite noise dropped remarkably.  Much to my surprise, about 30 minutes \nlater, I heard K3JRD calling... it was MUCH louder than the white noise, \nshowing how much attenuation was being done.\n\nDuring the QSO, I disabled and re-enabled the DSP several times to see the \ndifference.  It's night and day with my Kenwood TS-660 which has no \nbuilt-in DSP (not even a notch filter)!\n\nWhen I get chance I'm going to check out DttSP software that Bob \nsuggested!\n\nSorry if this is off topic since I haven't had chance to use it on a \nsatellite yet... give me a chance! hi hi\n\n73 de Rich N3WWN\n\nOn Thu, 12 Apr 2007, Tony Langdon wrote:\n\n> At 12:04 PM 4/12/2007, Roger Kolakowski wrote:\n>> And the winning answer was....?\n>\n> That one's got me curious too.
